Is there a way to for example flash wildfire s gingerbread rom and then change density?
Thanks.

No. Don't you think we would have had it a long time back then, if it were so simple? SFM is just that. Its based on the HTC Salsa Stock ROM, (The first release was based on the Wildfire S ROM, which had even more things not working) and you can see the results for yourself.

One more question... i installed jokersdroid 4.2 rom long ago, and i didnt have data connection. So i changed my rom to wildpuzzle, then cm etc. (everything was fine with data conn.) And now i flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906557 (rooted), and the same problem appears... i tried to flash different radios, but still no change, i still cant activate my data connection. I really like stock roms, so i wanna keep this one... can you help me on this?
Thanks.

The custom ROMs include your operators APN by default (i.e. it's pre-configured). This is not the case in the Stock ROM (Since its untouched), so, you will have to add the APNs yourself, after which, I am pretty sure mobile data should work.

You have my thanks.

now i have other problems... sometimes i have singnal sometimes not, the same goes for data connection ... what now?

Honestly, I don't think this is ROM related, but, network issues. Were you getting such issues when you were on the Stock ROM (At that time when data wasn't working for you?).
Anyway, seems like the 2.34 Safe Flash RUU is causing you all sorts of problems (Which shouldn't really, because both WildPuzzle and JokerDroid use this very ROM as its base), so you might as well switch and install the WWE 2.22.405.1 Safe Flash RUU from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877977
You will have to re-enter APN again, as usual.

cant stop hitting the thanks button

i solved the problem with the signav and data conn... it seems it was all about nfinity kernel... strange...

[Q] Phone deactivated?

I was running latest paranoid android and I wiped cache/dalvic cache after flashing Cerberus in recovery and when the phone booted up it was asking me to Activate (sprint service) my phone. I've never seen this with flashing roms and was wondering if this is a known issue with flashing roms on the S3 or something that can randomly occur from time to time.
Anyone have experience with this before? I had been running Paranoid Android for less than 24 hours but initially didn't have any problems whatsoever.

Itll do that sometimes depending on the rom. Usually does it after a factory reset and installing a cm based rom. Its just asking you to add your google account... you should be fine

This didn't have anything to do with my Google account. I guess I should have been more specific, I mean that my phone is deactivated on Sprint's network as in I can't make phone calls and all the info is missing in about phone. Phone number, PRL and such. I am flashing back to stock right now and hope this fixes it. Will probably give paranoid another go but this doesn't sound like a common issue because I haven't been able to find anything by searching.

When you get back to stock it'll probably reactivate itself. If not (although you can do this regardless just in case), ##72786# in the dialer should set you straight. If I'm not mistaken the screen you're referring to should be gone when you boot stock regardless. Its a bug. Doesn't work for a sprint phone but still buried in the rom

Ahhh... could try manually flashing your modem after the install too

Soon as I flashed the stock rom it tried to activate and initially failed and prompted me to reboot. Second attempt it was successful and then I immediately flashed back to PA and it is working. Going to give it another shot and keep the stock rom on my sd card this time in case I get stuck in a pinch.

I jumped the gun, phone activated fine but signal drops in and out randomly and will not connect to 3g. Just reflashed to stock again and everything seemed fine but signal was still back in and out. Checked under status and PRL read "0" tried updating to no avail so did the dialer code and it did the activation and all is right in the world again, or at least for the moment.
Just trying to figure out why when I flash Paranoid all my settings just disappear
*edit*
Just flashed back to PA this third time after fully making sure that the phone was working and had 3G data and all was right with the world (my phone). Will update if it goes South again but as of right now the phone is behaving properly. Maybe it just wasn't working right the first time and I didn't notice since I was on wifi. Only thing that keeps me from thinking that is I didn't get the Activation message until 12 hours or so after I had flashed and had been using the phone. /shrug

I still think flashing a modem in recovery after installing PA would yield a poisitve result

Thank you,

Question..Question

since updating to 4.2.2 Liquid rom i am unable to downgrade to any version below that without my phone switching off after 5 secs and me having to reboot back in..
any idea?? seems like by upgrading to 4.2.2 something has been upgraded and anything below that, even 4.2.1 just refuses to work and switches itself off.
and doing it through odin with stock rom even fails to stop the phone switching off..it installs fine and then proceeds to promptly switch off, but the minute I put the custom 4.2.2 rom back on...its fine again and doesnt switch off, which makes me think something has been upgraded along the way and anything other than 4.2.2 now will not work correctly on my phone..
How can i get back down to 4.2.1 etc.. is it baseband or something? This makes me think that all others on here with their phones switching off have potentially done the same thing as me? If you have any feedback is welcome...
Also if you managed to fix your shutting down after 5 secs and having to reboot issue issue I would love to know how this was achieved
any help is greatly appreciated as always

Do a mega wipe. Then flash stock rom.
this is XXXDDDAAA

OK mega wipe?? can you explain this to me and how to do that??
I currently have the stock rom for the UK 4.1.1
N7100XXALJ3_N7100OXXALJ4_BTU
so even though I can install this it still switches itself off after 5 secs and I have to reboot.. i am now at my wits end and will try anything to get my phone back to stock and actually working...
so any help is greatly appreciated....

Thanks for that...however gutted..it didnt fix my problem...

Then flash stock rom and fully unroot it.
Then go to Samsung store.

[Q] What is wrong with my Gnex?

Hey the Problem is the following:
3-5 random reboots every day
restarts during every phonecall after 1-3 Minutes
freezes when in standby, cant turn back on -> need to take battery out
often slow, especially when switching apps. or when typing
I have tried stock 4.3, CM10.2 recently and before that CM10.1 for a while.
I already send it in but they only said my battery is broken.
Is it possible that all my problems come from this?
I rather think my flash memory is broken? What you think?

Since yesterday I am facing the same problems you are describing. At first I thought it was a bad flash or something like that. Clean installed various 4.3 costum roms and it's always the same.
Right now I will look deeper into it since the phone is unusable in that condition.
If I find a solution I will comment.
Best regards
Edit: Okay, works again flawlessly. I simply flashed an nightly from carbon-rom and the lags were gone. Hope it helps. What exactly caused the lag I don't know. For now I am staying on 4.2.2 Carbon as it is my favourite rom anyway and I will wait till there are stable 4.3 from carbon.

Are you sure it's the phone and not an app?

Not pretty sure, but it still occured after countless factory resets, wipe cache, wipe dalvic cache and wipe system via TWRP.

Have you tried a clean install without installing apps to see if you get a reboot to eliminate an app as a possible cause?

Yes I did. I only flashed for example newest PA and their PA Gapps.
So far I resolved it by "downgrading" to a 4.2.2 nightly from carbon. The lags are completly gone. I will stay and wait till carbon has stable 4.3.

why dont people try stock when they are having problems? going from 1 custom rom to the next does not prove it is the phone.
please fastboot flash the stock rom and do not restore any apps/data other than say your google acct

Already did that.

I am having the same/similar problems with my GNex too. Specifically bullets [1-3] from the original post. I am running unmodified yakjuux and have tried with just my google account with no other apps and the same problem exists.
Mine makes a noticeable "click" sound with a vibration followed by a reboot.
It usually happens during calls and after it boots the phone call log shows no record of the incoming/outgoing call that just happened. Its like a blue screen of death for android!
I have sent the phone back to Samsung's warranty service 4 separate times and each time they reported no trouble found in the completion report. They just factory reset or put an older version of jelly bean back on the phone and send it back to me with some notes of PRL updates and other nonsense to make it seem like they did something to fix it.
Does anyone have any suggestions (logs, adb, etc) how I can help prove to Samsung/service absolute that the phone is a lemon (other than trying to video tape the phone hoping it reboots - because that is the last resort)?
I already escalated to executive customer service and they refused an exchange because the completion reports show no trouble found :crying:
Thx!

well... I also have this problem.
First happened when I flash Cm10.2 nightly (don't remember which one).
Then I flash PA, or whatever... Looks like the random reboot relating to notifications? It's usually happened when whatsapp notification coming in, but not always.
But a few weeks ago I flashed stock ROM rooted (via TWRP, not fastboot).
The problems solved. No random reboots anymore. Then today I tried latest CM10.2, and it happened again... Wonder why... Looks like it's a very rare problems.
Interesting to see someone having the same problem...
Now I want to flash stock ROM via fastboot to check if it'll fix.
Btw, I can flash directly to CM 10.2 from 10.1, can't I? Or I should flash 4.3 via fastboot first?

I believe CM offers an upgrade option somewhere in the system settings. Unless you want to wipe your phone and flash directly to 10.2 in which case I do not think you need to flash stock 4.3 first. Maybe just do a reset within 10.1 before you flash CM10.2 via whatever recovery (clockwork etc) you are using but even that may be unnecessary.
My 1 year warranty expires this month so if I can't manage to get something out of Samsung I am going to play around with flashing stock 4.3 as you suggested. I have tried converting yakjuux to yakju in the past but still saw the problem then which made me revert back to yakjuux so I could send the phone back for service).

Downgraded from 4.4.4 to 4.2, reverted back and no WIFI, tried everything!

Well, I followed an XDA thread to SIM unlock the M919. It involved downgrading from 4.4.4 to 4.2. and I successfully unlocked my device! But now I have no Wifi... I tried flashing every single modem, every firmware (Official TW ones via Odin, every custom rom using TWRP). They flashed well and everything worked besides the Wifi. I've found some threads from people with the exact same problem (they tried to unlock it using the same method) but those are old threads with no solution.
I've spent 24hrs reading and flashing and wiping and reading again. Any ideas?
Many thanks!

Anyone? If you find me a solution I will Paypal you 20 bucks!

I am having the same issue. My phone was already unlocked though, so no downgrading on my part, but I think we're having the same issue. Is yours showing connected, but usually getting time outs or disconnecting?
My issue happened when I flashed from stock 4.2 to the GPE rom for 5.1. Wi-fi issues. Connected, but exclamation point saying that my connection wasn't working. So I flashed a different rom (candy) and still, I have issues. So I went back to 4.2, stock everything. Stock bootloader, stock rom, stock radio. Still had issues. So I decided maybe flashing a new radio would work, so I flashed NH7 and NK2 (broke my audio). Still didn't work. Realized my bootloader doesn't match the modem, so I flashed 4.4.4 stock bootloader and stock NK2 modem. Tried it with the candy rom. No go. I tried the 4.4.4 stock ROM, wifi still has that stupid exclamation point. I've even gone so far as flashing both the bootloader and the radio over 5 times in one go (with battery pull each time) to see if that will work (starting to go nuts, I guess), but still, no fix.
I've had a temporary fix with Tasker (Connect2wifi), but it doesn't work when my phone is on idle, so I don't get any notifications until I actually wake up my phone.
I'm starting to wonder if it's the physical wifi radio (antenna) inside my phone that's broken. But then I wouldn't be able to connect at all if that's the case, right?

No, unfortunately my issue is very different. I know it isn't hardware related. I've never had any issues with it until the second I downgraded. Wifi just doesn't turn on. When I click on the button it just tries to turn on and after a couple seconds it turns back off, without even detecting any networks. This happens no matter what rom, version of android or modem I use. Downgraded, upgraded, tested every single modem and rom via TWRP and Odin.
